She was happy, yes, in her own way, as best as she knew. But there’s a difference between a single candle in darkness and a sunrise.

About This Quote

There is a big difference between being happy in your own way and being actually happy. The great poet Emily Dickinson wrote, “She was happy, yes, in her own way, as best as she knew. But there’s a difference between a single candle in darkness and a sunrise.” If you are happy in your own way, it does not mean you are truly happy. It is like when you are in the dark and think that it is light until you see the sun. You might think that is light, but it may be that is just one candle in darkness.
